Certified By Minnesota Pollution Control Agency- MPCA
Since 2000 Hennepin County, MN has adopted an ordinance governing individual Subsurface Sewage Treatment Systems (SSTS). It follows the rules set in place by the State of Minnesota. This program was started to protect the water quality within the county including underground and surface waters. The majority of cities in Hennepin County delegate their Permit and Compliance Inspection program to the county. Other cities handle their own building and inspections procedures.
